Sustainable Fashion, Waste, and Black Consumerism
An Interactive Experience
YES! Put me on the list for 2025!
April 19 - April 21, 2024
About the Event
Sustainable Fashion, Waste, and Black Consumerism: An Interactive Experience is a thoughtfully curated event that seamlessly weaves together crucial discussions on sustainable fashion, waste management, and the significant impact of Black consumerism in the fashion industry.
Building on the success of the October 2023 panel discussion at Eaton House, this event was an engaging and educational experience for attendees.
The variety of programming, including pop-up shopping, a jewelry recycling workshop, and clothing upcycling workshops, ensured a diverse and interactive experience for all participants.
By offering hands-on activities like workshops and demonstrations, the event not only educated but also actively involved attendees in sustainable practices, promoting a sense of responsibility and empowerment.
This is the first of what will be an annual event. In 2025, the mission will continue. Stay informed for next year’s panelists, pop-up shops, workshops, and so much more!
